Well it looks like a tropical depression will form just in time for us to head to the beach for vacation.

Today will be another mostly sunny day with a high in the 84-87 degree range. Humidity levels will gradually rise in coming days, but most of the state should be dry tomorrow with only isolated afternoon showers.

REST OF THE WEEK: We will bring the chance of “scattered, mostly afternoon and evening showers and thunderstorms” Wednesday through Friday as moisture levels continue to rise. Nothing widespread; odds of any one spot getting wet each day will be in the 30-50 percent range. Otherwise, the sky will be partly sunny with highs mostly in the upper 80s.

THE ALABAMA WEEKEND: We will roll with a persistence forecast. Partly sunny, warm, humid days with random, scattered, mostly afternoon and evening showers and thunderstorms. No way of knowing in advance exactly when and where the showers and thunderstorms will form; you just have to watch radar trends. Highs will be in 87-90 degree range.

NEXT WEEK: We aren’t expecting much change. Highs 87-90; a few scattered storms possible on a daily basis. There will be chances in the placement and coverage of them, but the small scale features responsible for those changes can’t be detected far in advance. Another words, very routine June weather. See the Weather Xtreme video for maps, graphics, and more details.



TROPICS: NHC has upped the chance of tropical development in the far Southwest Gulf of Mexico to 70 percent over the next five days. The remnants of Eastern Pacific Tropical Storm Amanda are currently located inland near the Guatemala-Yucatan Border. This large disturbance is forecast to move slowly northward this morning, followed by a northwestward motion later today, and the center of the low pressure system could emerge over the southeastern Bay of Campeche by this evening. If the remnants move back over water, environmental conditions appear conducive to support some development, and a new tropical depression could form while the system moves little through the middle of this week.

Looking at long range computer model ensemble output, the higher probabilities of impact in 7 days are over either the Texas or Louisiana coasts. Of course, there is no way of knowing right now exactly where this system winds up, or the intensity. We will be keeping a close eye on it.



CENTRAL GULF COAST: While the tropical system in the Gulf most likely won’t make landfall on the Alabama or Northwest Florida coast, these areas will be on the eastern, onshore flow side of the system. It will most likely bring a higher coverage of showers and storms to the Central Gulf Coast late this week and over the weekend. But, I will believe you will see sun at times, and the rain certainly won’t be continuous. We will be able to be much more specific once the system develops in a few days.

ON THIS DATE IN 1934: June started off on a warm note as high temperatures surpassed the century mark across parts of the Midwest. Several locations tied or set a record high temperatures for June including: Rockford, IL: 106°, Mather, WI: 105°, Hatfield, WI: 103°, Mondovi, WI: 102°, Chicago, IL: 102° and Grand Rapids, MI tied their June record high with 102°.

 

@Toyotacrawler I'm going to need some better new on the weather before I take the family to the beach next week as well.

 

Where you headed?

 

yeah I just meant I'll keep that conversation off TW lol

 

this is kinda my place to get away from the stuff that pisses me off on facebook so i agree.

 

well and...code of conduct and stuff lol

 

Which is exactly why this is as close to social media I get.

 

We are going to PCB for 2 weeks. Thanks to the work from home stuff, I'm going to work for one of them and truly vacation for the other one.

 

I wish I was still working from home. Back in the office now but next week we'll be in Orange Beach.

 

What grease would you use for cv wheelbearing area?

Sup Phillip!

 

Wow! I work in bham and was not thinking about this, thanks for the heads up

 

Anyone want a set of 5100s with OME 886 on them? $200

 

How many miles on them and how much lift did you yield after it settled?

 

The CVs use two different types of grease. A moly black grease and a high temp yellow grease. The black goes in the outer boot and the yellow in the inner boot.

 

I know that. I’m talking about where the cv goes into the hub.
